Trump: 'Terrorists do not worship God, they worship death'

President Trump on Sunday invoked the wrath of God and good versus evil in his Saudi Arabia address, declaring that terrorists "worship death" rather than any religion.

"This is a battle between good and evil," he said. "Every time a terrorist murders an innocent person and falsely invokes the name of God, it should be an insult to every person of faith."

"Terrorists do not worship God, they worship death," Trump continued, delivering the speech during his first foreign trip as president.

The president said if people do not act against this organized terror, then "we know what will happen and what will be the end result." He said peaceful societies will become "engulfed in violence."

"If we do not stand in uniform condemnation of this killing, then not only will we be judged by our people, not only will we be judged by history, but we will be judged by God," Trump said.

"This is not a battle between different faiths, different sects or different civilizations, this is battle between barbaric criminals who seek to obliterate human life and decent people all in the name of religion, people that want to protect life and want to protect their religion," he continued.

"When we see the scenes of destruction in the wake of terror, we see no signs that those murdered were Jewish, were Christian, Shia or Sunni. When we look upon the strains of innocent blood soaked into the ancient ground, we cannot see the faith or sect or tribe of the victims, we see only that they were children of God," he said.
